Pros
I bought this product with high expectations due to its viral popularity. As advertised, I really liked how it leaves a fresh finish, and it seems the blemishes gradually fade away.
Cons
As a student, I feel the price is quite steep compared to the amount of product you get.

Pros
The texture is moisturizing without being sticky or slippery. It absorbs well, leaving the skin feeling fresh. I liked that it has good hydration, so my skin doesn't dry out quickly. The ampoule is sky blue, just like the container color, and has a subtle floral scent. When I received the product, some of the blemishes I had were already fading. Though I didn't use it long enough to see significant improvement in blemishes, I did notice it helped reduce skin heat and had a calming effect when applied.
Cons
While the container design is cute, it's not easy to see how much product is left. It's fine for now, but I think it might become inconvenient when I'm close to using it all up.

Pros
My skin type: combination dehydrated skin, blemish-prone 1. It worked well when my skin was sensitive or irritated, and I could feel its soothing effects. 2. Suitable for dry skin, especially during winter. When I used it on my skin dried out from heater air, the hydration lasted long, which was satisfying. 3. Despite its watery consistency, it felt smooth and non-sticky when applied, leaving a fresh finish. It absorbed well even with multiple layers without pilling, making it perfect for daily care. 4. With its large 500ml size and affordable price, it seems like it will last for a long time.
Cons
5. For those with dry skin, it might not provide enough moisture on its own, so additional hydrating products may be necessary. After applying the ampoule, I found that using a cream on top helped the moisturizing effect last longer. 6. It has a slight viscosity, so it doesn't absorb quickly and may take some time to fully sink in after application. I needed to pat it in for a bit at the toner step to help it absorb. 7. It might feel heavy for oily skin types or during summer use. For sweaty summer days, I recommend using just a small amount for a lighter application.

Pros
The blue, bouncy texture made me think it would drip, but it's surprisingly viscous. It's super hydrating due to its high moisture content. Being a water-jelly type, it's moisturizing and absorbs quickly into the skin. It seems perfect for solving deep dryness and providing a cooling effect. The finish is fresh with no stickiness at all. As the weather got drier, I noticed dead skin cells on my face, but after applying this several times, my skin became smooth and the dryness disappeared. Personally, niacinamide works well for my skin, so I'm excited about its potential to reduce pigmentation! The packaging is adorably pretty. I love the marbled lid - it's such a nice touch. I noticed Braille on the back of the box, which made me feel the brand is really thoughtful.
Cons
The dropper might make it difficult to use up all the product without leaving residue.
Tip
If you layer it multiple times, it might pill, so it's best to apply just one layer in the morning when you need to put on makeup.

Pros
**Texture** - The ampoule has a 'mashed water jelly' formulation, with a bouncy gel-like texture that feels like condensed moisture. It melts lightly into the skin when applied, absorbs well even with multiple layers, and finishes with a fresh feel without any stickiness. It's actually very lightweight, making it suitable for use even in summer without feeling heavy. **Scent** - There's a subtle and refreshing fragrance that doesn't feel overly artificial, making it suitable even for sensitive skin. Officially, it contains a small amount of fragrance, but it's not irritating. **Effects** - Key ingredients include Azulene (for soothing) and 4% Niacinamide (for improving skin texture, evening complexion, and antioxidant effects), which help to calm the skin, provide hydration, and manage blemishes. A big advantage is that it can manage dead skin cells without needing separate exfoliating products. - In terms of actual user experience, it makes the skin texture feel softer and smoother without separate exfoliation. It's gentle enough to be used safely on sensitive skin. While dramatic improvements in blemishes or pigmentation weren't noticeable in a short period, there's an overall sense of the skin becoming healthier. **Advantages** - Very lightweight formulation, comfortable to use even in summer - Contains 4% Niacinamide for improving skin texture and complexion - Azulene provides quick soothing and a cooling effect - Absorbs well even with multiple layers, no stickiness - Dermatologically tested, suitable for sensitive skin - No irritation for blemish-prone skin --- **Overall Review** The Mamonde Calming Shot Azulene Blemish Hydrating Ampoule, with its light and fresh water jelly texture, is especially recommendable for summer use or for sensitive and oily skin types. It's suitable for those who want to gently refine skin texture and provide soothing and hydration without irritation. While it may not show significant blemish improvement in the short term, it's a satisfying product as a daily ampoule.
Cons
**Disadvantages** - The effect on pigmentation or blemish improvement might feel minimal in the short term - The cooling effect typical of ampoules might not be to everyone's liking - While it's highly hydrating, it might not provide enough moisture for extremely dry skin (recommended to mix with a cream)
Tip
Using a modeling mask after applying the ampoule can double its effectiveness

Pros
Used for 1 week / Combination skin (oily T-zone, dehydrated U-zone) Recommended for: - Those bothered by post-acne marks - People seeking a gentle, hydrating essence that tackles blemishes - Anyone who appreciates cute on-the-go skincare items Hydration bomb with a fresh feel Perfect for summer use with its non-sticky texture. At first, it seems like a viscous formula, but as you massage it in, it transforms into a moisture-rich essence - like a water balloon bursting on your skin. My T-zone is quite oily with large pores, so I'm not keen on heavy products right now. This seems perfect to use from now through summer. Soothing blue hue The signature azure color of azulene is calming even before application. It gives the impression of enhanced soothing properties and increased hydration - a feeling that's backed up by satisfying results! Zero irritation for sensitive skin From day one through the entire week, I loved how it caused no irritation. As the weather warms up and my skin becomes more sensitive, this essence remained gentle with no stinging or irritation. As expected, Mamonde is a brand I can trust. Adorable packaging The rounded bottle with its marbled design is super cute. Its smooth shape fits comfortably in hand, making me reach for it often. As someone who loves cute things, the packaging is just perfect for me.
Cons
While I'm generally pleased with the product's performance, my main concerns are mostly external factors. Insufficient pump amount One dropper pump isn't enough to cover the entire face. This means you have to dip back in for a second pump, which is a bit inconvenient. I think a pump bottle design might have been more practical. Non-recyclable container The pretty packaging likely means more dyes and design elements were used, which is disappointing for someone like me who's environmentally conscious. On the bright side, at least the shipping box was made of paper.
Tip
Pro tip: Use as a first essence Surprised? An ampoule as the first step in skincare? But hear me out! This product has a unique water balloon-like texture. What starts as an ampoule-like consistency transforms into a watery essence that beads up with moisture when you touch it. So, try this: Dispense 2-3 pumps into your palm, gently rub your hands together, and apply it as the first step after cleansing. It's perfect for soothing and addressing blemishes right from the start!

Pros
Instant hydration upon application! I loved how well it absorbs and leaves the skin feeling moisturized. The hygienic dropper applicator is a plus, and the non-runny texture makes it easy to apply. While not fragrance-free, it has a subtle cooling scent that isn't overpowering, making it suitable for most users. The refreshing aroma is particularly pleasant as the weather gets warmer, giving a crisp and invigorating feel. I appreciate that it's formulated with gentle and safe ingredients. As someone with sensitive skin, I was worried about potential blemishes, but I didn't experience any unusual breakouts after using this product.
Cons
Overall, I'm quite satisfied, so there's not much to criticize. However, those who are sensitive to fragrances should note that it's not completely unscented.
Tip
For someone like me with combination skin leaning towards oily, using a cream for night care in summer or hot weather often feels heavy and greasy. However, this product seems perfect for lightweight use - just applying it after your skincare routine provides all the hydration you need!

Pros
Skin type: Combination skin + freckles + dehydrated Texture and feel: While it's not intensely cooling, there's a subtle and appealing refreshing effect. As someone who sweats a lot, I usually end up with beads of sweat on my face after applying emulsion and drying my hair, but this product seemed to prevent that. It's also non-sticky with a pleasant, light hydration that I really liked. This makes it perfect for use from spring through summer. With consistent use, it might help improve the appearance of blemishes and pigmentation. I'll update on this after using it for 2+ more weeks. Scent: It seems unscented, but there's a slight floral cosmetic fragrance. It's a subtle scent that shouldn't be polarizing. Texture: A thick, hydrating gel-like consistency (it doesn't run) Interestingly, it has a blue tint thanks to an ingredient called azulene.
Cons
Since blue cosmetics aren't common, it might not be everyone's cup of tea.

Pros
1. The scent is a pleasant, powdery floral that's not overpowering. 2. Despite its rich texture, it feels refreshingly light on the skin. After using it for 1-2 weeks, I'm really satisfied with how it feels! It absorbs well with a very watery texture, making it perfect for the upcoming summer. I think this ampoule is ideal for the warmer months. There's no irritation, so I'd recommend this to: • Those who've had good experiences with Mamonde skincare • Anyone looking for a refreshing, hydrating, and soothing ampoule
Cons
It seems to contain fragrance, so those with super sensitive skin might want to avoid it!

Pros
Despite its fluffy texture when dispensed, it spreads on refreshingly with a light cooling effect that helps soothe skin heat. A major plus is that it doesn't feel sticky after application, and it creates a firm, supple skin appearance. It's great to use before makeup.
Cons
I didn't notice significant effects on blemishes, though it might have slightly faded them.
